Missing from the above list is the fact that, due to the end of the codeshare with VLM, London will disappear from the destinations list of VEX.

Are they definately stopping the codeshare with VLM :?: I never heard of that :roll:

Anyway, it seems that VEX will have to increase the number of planes during the summer months. Otherwise they will have to reduce frequencies on other destinations during the summer :roll:

Chris, I think that they will indeed reduce frequencies to other destinations that are in any case less popular during summer months. They simply expect a lot of addtional pax on the southern destinations. ATH >> Olympic games, LIS >> Euro 2004

(And maybe they anticipate future collaboration with SNBA?)

Sonny, I would not always rely on the articles printed in luchtvaartnieuws.nl. They are very often correct, but they sometimes made enormous mistakes as well.

The VLM codeshare news comes from an official press release of Virgin Express, and one can hope that these at least are 100% reliable.
